So you need to be careful to be sure that the physician that you're consulting with has a particular interest in treating your problem, because as has been mentioned, many dermatologists themselves are not particularly interested in treating hair disorders, so be sure the doctor that you choose -- and you may call to ask his receptionist if he has experience and interest in treating hair disorders -- be sure either through referral or by exploring this physician to be sure that he's someone that has an interest in trying to help you.

DAVID R. MARKS, MD: But how does a person realistically find out if that doctor is any good at hair replacement therapy?

MICHAEL REED, MD: I think if you want to get a referral, you can check with the American Academy of Dermatology.You can call the local medical centers, speak to the department of dermatology to find out if they have a specialist in that area.But we're around and we're not that hard to find. We don't play hard to get.

NEIL SADICK, MD: The American Academy of Dermatology has a physician referral service, and those physicians are listed in their areas of interest and expertise, so by calling the American Academy of Dermatology and asking for someone that has an interest in hair, you will be given the name of someone in your geographic area that has shown that he is interested and has experience in dealing with your particular problem.

DAVID R. MARKS, MD: Thank you both for helping to elucidate where to go to get help for hair loss.Thanks for being here.Thank you for joining our webcast. I'm Dr. David Marks. Goodbye.
